Actran – Acoustic Simulation Software
Actran helps you investigate how sound is generated, propagates and interacts with structures. Assess noise sources and acoustic improvements early in development.
Discuss Actran with usTechnical Product Overview
Actran provides tools for acoustic, vibroacoustic and aeroacoustic analysis.
Sound propagation
Calculate sound fields inside and outside components or systems.
Vibroacoustics
Investigate vibrating structures and their interaction with the surrounding fluid.
Flow-induced noise
Derive noise sources from CFD results and calculate their acoustic propagation.
Acoustic materials
Assess absorbing materials, insulation and acoustic trim.
Time and frequency
Study acoustic behaviour using time-domain or frequency-domain solution methods.
Modelling and results
Prepare models in Actran VI and explore results through plots, maps and animations.
Where is Actran used?
Vehicles and powertrains
Investigate cabin noise and sound radiation from motors or gearboxes.
Aerospace
Assess cabin acoustics, engine noise propagation and acoustic treatments.
Ventilation and machinery
Analyse noise from fans, ducts and silencers.
We discuss suitable acoustic modules, interfaces and the use of your existing structural or fluid flow models.
